Family

by AC, San Mateo

My relationship with my parents is really good and strong. We’re always just talking, cleaning and chilling together either with music or with the TV show on. I know mostly everything I wondered about my parents because I asked them and then we go on talking for hours while they cook or just sit on the couch. I love how our relationship is strong because we really don’t know how much we’ve always struggled, but we managed to get through it as a family. So, I’m thankful for that. 

Our bond has always been good. We never argue unless it’s for like a sporting event or something like that, but other than that, we don’t argue or fight. I’m glad we have a good bond because if I need something or someone, I can always count on my parents to talk or to get advice from. So, I’m very thankful for that as well. I know that they go through stuff too, so I try to be there for them and my brothers. 

After I get out, I’m going to try my absolute best to get them what they want because I know they work hard, and they deserve it and so much more. We’ve literally been through everything together and learned a lot from them like yard work, being respectful and well behaved and so much more. 

I’m just glad that we got through every battle that got thrown at us as a family. Other than that, I love my family!
